Bryce was 17 for 20 for 289 yards versus zone in this game. It's one of the best games he's ever played. And it's not a win. And dude, when you look at how he was under pressure as well, 6 for 9, 83 yards, a touchdown, 17.3% completion percentage above expectation.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Young had career-best game: 17-20 vs zone, 83 yards under pressure, +17.3% CPOE.

Bryce Young had one of the best games of his career in Week 1 against the Bears, despite the Panthers losing 59-37. Against zone coverage, Young was 17 for 20 for 289 yards, and under pressure he was 6 for 9 for 83 yards with a touchdown and 17.3% completion percentage above expectation. The source emphasizes that Young played at a Heisman Trophy winner level, particularly on a wheel route to Tet where he released the ball before the receiver even turned upfield. The source notes this was a great offensive day for Carolina and that Young rose to the occasion even though the rest of his defense didn't.
